NTF-ELCAC spokesperson General Parlade is at it again. Redtagging community pantries with no and limited information he has given his group’s undeserved government funds.
AFP's reputation shrinks every time Parlade opens his mouth. In the midst of the pandemic, this general has become a general problem.
Government anti-insurgency task force spokesperson Lieutenant General Antonio Parlade Jr. on Tuesday admitted that they are checking the background of the organizers of community pantries.
“They’re saying the people are going hungry because of the fault of the government,” said NTF-Elcac spokesperson Lt. Gen. Antonio Parlade Jr.
“So we’re just checking their background," he added.
They claim that the people are hungry due to government failure. Ergo, we check the background of the organizer.
Ignoratio elenchi: The conclusion doesn’t follow from the premise. Post hoc ergo propter hoc fallacy as the consequent has nothing to do with the antecedent.
Now that's narrow minded thinking...
Not surprised as we've been under a psuedo-democracy for 5 years anyway.
Asked why Community Pantry organizers have to defend their motives, Parlade draws a biblical parallel with Satan tempting Eve in the Garden of Eden.
I want to understand how Parlade thinks. Bakit ganyan siya mag-isip? He is equating a bayanihan act to acts of Satan as if it is the same.
Reacting to Parlade’s "Satan" remark, Maginhawa Community Pantry organizer Ana Patricia Non says no one, especially those doing good deeds, should be compared to Satan. While she’s not offended, says members of the religious who volunteer for the community pantry might be.
Meanwhile, PNP Chief Debold "Mananita" Sinas denies that PNP makes background check on pantry organizers.
Ang gulo ng DDS cinematic universe. Di mo mawari timeline nila. Kung sabagay AFP itong isang ito at si Sinas ay PNP .... pero parehong anlakas mang redtag, kaso tiklop naman sa mga Instik sa WPS issue at China.
The Filipinos would also appreciate if government checks the organizers and affiliates of those Chinese ships roaming the WPS. Gunship kills, gulay and goods don’t. Kaso hindi yun trabaho ni Parlade at ng NTF-ELCAC.
It's so ironic they are against communism but they bow down and deal with the Chinese Communist Party or CCP.
Shoot first, aim later. Bagay si Parlade sa PNP hindi sa AFP. Someone should file a case against him so he cannot get his retirement pension until the case is over.
Parlade reminds me of those nutcase generals in sci-fi movies who won't listen to the scientists or the colonels for their stubborn obsession with their own power. They usually get eaten before the movie is done, and the audience either cheers or laughs.
The failure of SND and CSAFP to do anything decisive about Parlade and his continued assignment to NTF-ELCAC tells me he's also a pliant, well-funded, ambitious nutcase who's willing to discard honor & dignity. Some cynically call that being mission-oriented.
Parlade, for all his accomplishments in life, as symbolized by the stars on his shoulder boards, will forever be infamously known as the red tagger of community pantry organizers. Shameful.
Is today the day of the great community pantry backpedaling? Part of it should definitely be a decent Parlade bashing. I begin with:
“Parlade wouldn’t recognize a red even if a baboon wagged his butt before his face”
Parlade is the modern-day Herman Goering/ Joseph Goebbels. Field Marshal Erwin Rommel would kick Parlade's insecure, corrupt butt if Rommel were alive today. Rommel was respected by Churchill and Patton even if they were enemies. Rommel had a heart for enemies. Parlade is a disease.
Antonio Parlade Jr. was trained at Fort Leavenworth in Kansas, where he presented his thesis on the Philippine communist insurgency in 2006. Who else studied there? Brazilian and Indonesian generals who led anti-communist massacres and fascist coups in their countries in the 1960s.
General Parlade's Anti-Commie Task Force is chaired by President Duterte (not that he is actively participating), so it is possible that the President is angry that his government is being shown-up as inutile by the pantries. So he let the dogs out. Parlade is the big dog of Philippine fascism.
Parlade's reckless assertion to red-tag anything & anyone in accordance to Duterte's whims somehow exhibits a clandestine government payola to generate such preposterous act. His kind of stupidity must have demanded a dear price commensurate to his honor & reputation he's exchanged.
What is Parlade so afraid of? That the 'communists' will bring the government to its knees using food? Ano yan, batuhan ng okra, kamatis, kalabasa at itlog?
Let's be honest: This is nothing more than a witch hunt.
The organizers of the community pantries expressed their lack of hope in this regime and made its ineptitude even more apparent.
They dispelled the illusion it was trying to project so now its minions are going after them.
Nasanay kasi sila sa gobyernong walang direksyon at walang initiative kaya kung may makita silang organizado at may initiative nagsususpetsa na agad sila.. Sa kanila kasi kabobohan ang normal kaya nabibigla nakakita pag nakakita ng gumagana at may saysay.
While the government praises the resilience of Juan dela Cruz, it somehow also wants it suppressed.
INUTIL NA, MAGULO PA UTAK.
Curses and karma be upon those who malign good deeds just because it does not fit their narrative and political agenda.
Diyos na ang bahala sa mga bumaboy sa initiatibo na para sa mga gutom at mahihirap.
We challenge Parlade, Badoy-Partosa, Diño and their likes to donate their their entire 2021 salaries and allowances, para may ambag naman sila, at huwag ding maging talangka.
Also: defund and abolish NTF-ECLAC so we could redirect its P19-billion budget to ayuda, testing, and bakuna.
The people have rights to question the government or to express disappointment on it's role. Now, Parlade, is this being cautious, or just 𝒑𝒂𝒓𝒂𝒏𝒐𝒊𝒂?
Parlade is a malicious attack dog. His contempt for human rights shows in the quality of his malignant initiatives.
He has no place in government. He has no place in civil society. He has no place in democracy.
